In his fourth and final adventure, Gotham Productions' canine star Peter the Great played a police dog chasing down a gang of bank robbers along with his master, Robert Conway (Edward Hearn). Peter discloses that one of the robbers, Jimmie Bryson (Joe Bennett), is actually forced into a life of crime by Al Stokes (Lee Shumway, the dog's former owner. With the assistance of Robert and Jimmie's sister Mildred (Ethel Shannon), the clever pooch catches the real criminal after an exciting automobile chase. Peter the Great was poverty row company Gotham's answer to Warner Bros.' world famous Rin Tin Tin. His films, although popular with the small fry, never enjoyed Rinty's above-average budgets and wide distribution.
